This is a cross post from a post in the RokuDev subreddit on Friday. There was no response but a few upvotes.
We are streaming hls audio with custom metadata on EXT-X-DATERANGE. Items like title, artist, albumArtUrl. For the life of me I can't figure out how to access that data. I've tried monitoring timedMetaData and setting timedMetaDataSelectionKeys to ["*"] with no luck. I've also monitored streams on the content metadata. I haven't been able to find an examples. The stream works on the stream tester but shows no metadata. Does anyone have any tips on handling this?
Thanks - Brent
This was working in version 9 of the Roku OS. Couple things to note here:
- timedMetaDataSelectionKeys dosn't have a * in it.
-I could only return timedMetaData2
Hi Mike - Thanks for the suggestion, unfortunately that does not work for me. m.audio.timedMetaData2 does not exist so it breaks the app when I hit is. I'll keep searching and post a solution here if I figure it out. Until then, any additional help would be appreciated. I feel like I'm missing something fundamental here.
Also make sure you use video not audio.
m.audio = createObject("roSGNode", "Video")
